Purinton > 617)-891-0000 x282 LAB x421 > BGS Systems, Inc. > Waltham, MA. this looks more a bug of the hp linker as i see. try what /bin/ld and check the hp patch lists for a new linker. i know of certain bugs in the linker for 9.x, and even for 10.x. for the gcc is to say that ansi specifies the jump label of an switch to be something like a long int or so (i should look after). so, only if you exceed this recommodation you will get a message by the compiler. your print is a message by the linker, the system linker too which has no relation to gcc as that it will be invoked by gcc to link the object files to an executable. j. -- +---------------------------------------+-----------------------+ | jan springer | this | | student of applied computer science | space | | bauhaus-university weimar -- germany | reserved | +---------------------------------------+ for | | jan.springer@informatik.uni-weimar.de | quote. | +---------------------------------------+-----------------------+
